From my previous post, I see a lot of you guys like Aaron Donald at #14 if he is available. So lets say he is and Emery pulls the trigger and drafts the kid. So we get our future DT. Now a few draft picks go by and the team with the #20 overall pick is on the board. Would you guys be willing to give up some draft picks and possibly future draft picks to get Calvin Pryor??? I feel this kid is a stud and is going to have a bright future. Our defense would have a new look and would be a lot better than last years defense.

Definitely not for Pryor. But if we got Gilbert at #14 and Donald/HaHa//Ealy/Haegman get into the #20s I'd go get them.

2 of the picks I've loved the most were the Stephen Paea move up and the Alshon Jeffery move up. I had Jeffery as a top 2 prospect and Paea as a top 25 prospect. If those guys fall go get them. They're worth it.

The only way I would move up is if we could get it done by only using one pick from the 2015 draft with our next OTC pick…I don’t think we can afford this year to give up any additional 2014 picks along with the next OTC pick…just too many holes…but if Emery wants to get aggressive using next year’s picks I would be all for it…plenty of talent in this draft._________________Adopt-a-Bear...Adrian Amos

I said no becaue of the following reasons:
In the deepest draft in 10 years we are going to give up 3 picks and move down on another.
Pryor is like HaHa. They are both overhyped. You can get the same guy in R2.
I believe if the front 7 get fixed, the back 4 get better by osmosses.
Also believe rebuilding the defense is a 2 year project with inputting many new faces, not just a FS.

Paea has been a flop since he can't stay on the field and when there is not a force. You better have better examples than this trade. I am not even sure if Paea is going to be on the team in September, if he is not on IR.

Hindsight is always 20/20. We're talking about prospects. Paea at the time was worth it.

Made sense at the time but one could argue that Paea has been more underwhelming than Shea McClellin._________________

I would disagree with that. Paea was a 2nd round pick and has played very well at times. Shea was a first round pick and is playing LB now for a reason.

I said no becaue of the following reasons:
In the deepest draft in 10 years we are going to give up 3 picks and move down on another.
Pryor is like HaHa. They are both overhyped. You can get the same guy in R2.

Nailed it._________________

With all our defensive help we cant move up. If at 14 both Donald and Pryor are gone, or if we can get either a few picks later we can move back. This year we cannot trade up period._________________Adopt a Bear:

I would only trade up at the top of the draft for Clowney or Mack, and only to 10 or so (cost reasons), and neither guy is getting near 10. I'd be willing to trade back into the bottom of the 1st for a few guys, but not if it means giving up our 2, 4 and 2 next year._________________
